"There are opportunities to leverage push technologies in emergencies. Providing up-to-date information to large segments of the public is important because it permits people to take appropriate actions, helps prevent panic, speeds remediation efforts, and can prevent follow-on crises. But widespread broadcasts (whether by television, radio, or the Internet) are not necessarily the best approach — they provide only limited, situation-specific information and cannot supply details tailored to the needs of individuals, such as what evacuation route to use. By contrast, push technologies could deliver more focused (and presumably more accurate) warnings and more detailed advice on what actions to take and could decrease the frequency with which people receive false alarms (warnings that do not apply to them).[3]
